State Sen. Josh Green talks about his hopes for pushing an agenda that includes raising the minimum wage, expanding drug-and-alcohol treatment programs and working on other key issues for families with Pod Squad host Chad Blair.

He also tells what it was like working with HIV/AIDS patients in South Africa, where he and fellow volunteers saw more than 340 patients in a single day.
